so cal residents have NO BUSINESS driving in the rain, stay your hippie asses at home and let us guys from out of state have a ****** blast on the highway, there is no reason you can't drive the same way you do on dry roads as wet roads, the first 15 min is the 'worst' time of the rain, well not always here, drainage does suck in some places, but if you know how to drive you will be okay...

i do have to admit though last saturday was pretty bad, i went to san diego from san clemente in my FD and was pretty nervous, it was raining so hard I couldn't see 100 ft in front of me... leg was a little tired from covering the clutch for an hour LOL


Driving in the rain is the best time to drive. Especially on the touge. Even with my bald *** tires I'm still smashing down the highway like there is no tomorrow.
